Griffin Security strives to find the "right" person for the job. Our proprietary Officer Profile allows us to create a clear and defined standard for the officers' personality, skills and on the job performance. During the recruitment process, these characteristics are evaluated to match the officer with the appropriate job.
Every Griffin Security candidate goes through a three-phase selection and review process that evaluates character, dependability, professionalism, education and trustworthiness. During this process we also review their residential, employment and personal histories. The final approval of the candidate is made by our multi-disciplinary team of managers. This entire process ensures that the officers we hire match the Officer Profile and meet Griffin Security's high standards of excellence.
Lastly, it is Griffin Security's policy to recruit and hire officers locally. We believe that there is value in reducing officer commuting time. Hiring local officers also allows us to add more staff quickly and efficiently, should the need arise.
